Otree HR-Prolific
Anubrata Deka
I am planning to run my study on Prolific and I am having some issues understanding how to deploy the study.
I decided to opt for Otree Hr.
To deploy my study I first created an oTree zip file and uploaded it to oTree Hub. I used oTree hub to deploy my study on Heroku. Then using the link generated, I created a session that comprised of 20 participants. This then gave me a session code.
In oTree HR I first put in the heroku link and secret code to login. Thereafter, I used the session code generated to create a session on oTree HR. When I choose then to configure the session I get the attached page.
I am little confused here though. When they mention that:
1. add 'prolific_completion_url' to your SESSION_FIELDS
Does the above statement means that in the SESSION_FIELDS on the setting page I need to add this completion code? For instance: SESSION_FIELDS = ['adding completion code'].
2. add 'finished' to your PARTICIPANT_FIELDS setting
Does the above statement means again that in the PARTICIPANT_FIELDS on the setting page I need the write the following: PARTICIPANT_FIELDS = ['finished']
3. In your oTree code, when the participant arrives to the last page, set participant.finished = True (for example in before_next_page)
Finally, is it possible if you could help with this third point? I am not sure how to code this because function such as before_next_page is for player field and not the participant field. How can I do that? Or is there some other function that I can use and is it possible if you could help me with code.
OR instead of doing point three, they say that I can do point 4.
4. On the last page, redirect the user to the prolific completion page:
Click <a href="{{ session.prolific_completion_url }}">here</a> to complete the study.Does this point imply that in the last HTML page of my study, I directly add this code? and not do point 3?
